I continue to order turkey from you because it is just great turkey. I especially appreciate the variety of cuts. Grilled some turkey burgers yesterday and they are wonderful. Looking forward to making the whole bone in turkey breast.

We drove down from the Twin Cities to purchase our first Ferndale turkey. Delighted to see such a wonderful market too. Your turkey is by far the most amazing one we have ever tasted. Thanks Rachel Perron of Kowalskis for recommending! We will be telling everyone how amazing it is and just so you know we know a LOTof people!

We were there for the tours this last Saturday. It’s a bit of a drive for us since we live in Mankato, but we’re glad we went. We had no idea what to expect and we were pleasantly surprised at the shop. We got some cranberry turkey sticks, I about ate those all myself, so good. The tour was very informative for me, I’m a city kid, my husband is a farm kid and he was impressed too. I’ve been telling all my family and friends about this place and we plan on visiting again really soon!
